I quit smoking and I dont miss it
 

It was on December 29th when I was recovering from my hangover. I just did not feel like having a cigarette. Just the thought of lighting up a smoke disgusted me.

So I have been clean for more than 10 days now, and it feels good. It amazes me how I can now pick up a sent from so far away. Someone lights a cigarette 30 meters from me - I smell it. Fuck I even notice people walking behind me just by their perfume.

So it feels good, I was also put on a diet so I don't end up like all my fat friends who gave up smoking and I'm doing sports.

So stop smoking people, is baaaaad for you!

And speaking of smoking:

being in control of your body is the most important thing

i quit cigs cold turkey myself, it empowers you to quit consuming other things.

YES! and congrats to you both! I am on the winning team as well. 5 years strong now! :)

Keep going strong man. Don't break down and have that first drag.

8 months now for me. It feels good to breath

thanks guys :-)

Did you have that scent experience as well or is that just my body acting stupid?

Trying to do that in the last year but by far only one week or two without cigs. It's really hard but i wish you lot of luck

Congrats Huda!!! You def. have it in ya ;o)

Stopped and slipped, you have motivated me to stop again, keep it up Huda:pimp

Your sense of smell and taste will be warped for a while. Also when you smell your brand you will have the urge. Just fight it, never give in. Till the day you die you will have them on your mind, it just gets weaker and weaker until you care so much more about your body you wouldn't even think to actually smoke one.

I quit cold turkey too and that was about 3 years ago. Best thing I have ever done for my lungs.

Keep it up !!

Smoking sucks balls anyway... :thumbsup

Congrats! This will be one of your best decisions you ever took...

I was up to 3 packs a day. In november I quit cold turkey.

I couldnt breathe or walk to the corner with my daughter without having to take a break.

It's amazing how much better I feel and how much money I am saving now seriously

3 packs a day $5 per pack $15 per day
$105 a week
$420 a month
$5,040 a year

Congrats! I'm on the "quit cold turkey club" too. It's been many years now and believe it or not, every now and then I have a urge... Just have to change my mind and it goes away.

Great for you! Anyway, 10days is not too much. Keep your defeces up, specially you get drunk. :)

Congrats on quitting, good to see you're not missing it.

Thats the main reason find it hard to quit, "Is there a life after smoking etc"

Smoking is gross. But it still looks cool when you're at a club. Chicks dig it, whether they say they do or not. It's part of the whole "bad boy" thing.

But "bad breath boy". Also most girls smoke still, at least in nyc. I hate smoking girls, I can't date what I can't kiss. :(

I'm trying to quit for like the 52nd right now. Fucking sucks. I was using Snus as a substitute on and off for a while but now I'm going for no nicotine.

I quit cold as well :) Just stopped buying them and long story very short, that was it! It took many many weeks for the instinct to reach and grab a smoke at key times to die off. It still freaking happens rarely.. under high stress and such. Every day gets better and easier though, so good going! :)

glad you could do it ... good luck

I wish i could it,lol
congrats:)

good for you that you quit :thumbsup

I have been a fulltime smoker for many years, then I started smoking only on special occasions, maybe twice a month or so. Time past and I forgot to smoke for a couple of months. I was at this party and I decided to have a cigarett, but it was so horrible I just couldn´t do it. I have tried a few times more after that, with the same result. So my advice is, forget to smoke for a while:-)

*hugs and kisses*

i'm smoke free since August 10th ;-)
feels so good!!!

Bravo!!
Keep it up!
Kream 3x

i need to quit

Congrats man. I am a 20 year smoker and going to give quitting a good try this month. Have cut down a bit already.

gratz, but i still smoking

Smoke free since April 23rd.

Congrats brotha! I don't smoke! :)

congrats... dont feel the need to quit myself, i like to smoke a cig now and then... i do think i smoke a little too much (1 pack a day) so have to cut back a bit.

congrats on your decision

Congrats, I finally quit for good a couple months ago too. Although when I go out drinking I have to have a couple...when I wake up the next morning though, man do I regret it.

I don't have even one single friend that quit smoking. As me they quit fort just a short period of time, a few weeks or months.You are doing great! :thumbsup

Good for you huda. Smoking really does suck.

Congrats! Good for you!

Some inspiring posts here, must try and quit again myself.

Congrats!!!

Congrats!

Congrats!

wow thanks so much guys!

I haven't been tempted yet and the diet is not so bad either. I'm going drinking next weekend I wonder how that will go

congrats, i just can't :(

I stopped smoking 5 years ago (cold turkey) and i never looked back. One of the best decisions i've ever made...

Keep it up.

congrats! :)

You can do it!

4th week of non-smoking! And I don't miss it a bit. Food tastes so much better now and even when I went out last weekend and got really really drunk I did not get weak. Love it

I quit cigarettes 3 years ago... still love weed and hip hop music :)
